    That tells me they are going warmack on the first. No way are they starting beach at guard.

    If this article is correct showing:

    Gilbert - Beachum- Pouncey- Decastro - Adams

    We will have serious growing pains. Only time will tell if it grows well?

    thank God and Greyhound he's gone. i'm doing my snoopy dance.

    thornton would look good added to that mix in the 3rd or 4th.

    beachum was a good pick last year. gilbert is my concern.:cool:

    The Steelers are getting a colon cleanse. Foster said he doesn't want to leave pgh AMD said its not about money for him. I would rather have him then beachum or draft warmack.

    there are many more needs than a guard in the first round... beachum is a solid player...they also have the option of trying to resign foster....

    I think Gilbert will do well on the left. Mostly that's a speed lob not a power lob.

    Well, don't dance just yet. Just to clarify, this article is just speculation on Bouchette's part, while likely, it hasn't happened yet.
    Hopefully that's true. I'd be happy if we kept Foster.
    Agree completely.

    Foster knows that there isn't any teams that would be interested in his inconsistant play and completely missed blocks that get the QB or RB killed when we can least afford it.

    I know our defense needs help but the fact is they were still number 1 and DL will keep them in the top ten. Our offense was horrible. We couldn't run the ball at all. Like somebody said we are losing our starting rb. Our offense needs help and a strong line makes up for a lot of problems. #1 ranked d #21 ranked offense which looks to be losing its 1b wr, starting rb, three linemen, and maybe a te on the shelf to start the season. Our defense needs depth and with an offense in shambles you don't use your first pick on depth.

    you are dead set against beachum for some reason. did he kick your dog or something TSH? that kid played well for us. he's been put in every position imaginable as a rookie. 2 of which he's never played before. he can only get better. plus he's skilled enough if he had to play LT for a game or part of a game he could. at least as the 3rd option. he's mobile too. smart as heck. all this says alot about the kid. whats not to like from him?:cool:

    There's not a snowball's chance in hell that Warmack goes top 5.

    Mel Kiper Big Board updated... #5 overall...pretty sure he might know a little more than you :eek:

    Analysis:
    Could be first true guard drafted in top 10 since 1997. Warmack was the best O-lineman on his team, which says a lot. Takes defenders where he wants them to go. A powerful run-blocker, Warmack isn't just massive, but he also moves well, with initial power in tight spaces and the ability to seek out LBs on the second level.


    Mcshay Big Board #4 Pretty sure he might know a lil more also :eek:

    Analysis: Warmack is a big, strong, nasty lineman with good smarts and athleticism. He shows awareness, is an easy mover in pass protection and has power as a run-blocker. The best guard I've evaluated in the past decade, Warmack is the rare interior lineman worthy of a top-10 overall pick. Previously: 3

    It tells me that they are going to re-sign Foster, who is a better player than Colon, and will be much cheaper. In Round #1, we will give LeBeau a new tool for his tool box.
